has become an in-demand drink for children and teenagers, but cautioned the product carries more caffeine than many other drinks with the stimulant.
The drink does have a label advising it is not recommended for those under 18, but Schumer claimed the advertising campaign used is targeted at that age group.According to the company’s product information on its website, a single 12-ounce can of the drink contains 200 milligrams of caffeine — the equivalent of half a dozen cans of Coke or nearly two Red Bulls.
The FDA generally advises that about 400 mg of caffeine a day for an adult is “not generally associated with dangerous, negative effects.” However, the agency warns that people can have different sensitivities to the effects and speed at which they can metabolize caffeine.While the FDA has not set a limit for the amount of caffeine those under the age of 18 can consume, the American Academy of Pediatrics advises against caffeine consumption by youths.
